Red Light Therapy can add considerable value to any type of health-care practice, allowing you to expand your treatment menu plus enhance the scope of your therapy for better patient outcomes.  And better patient outcomes equal greater patient satisfaction.  This means positive word-of-mouth publicity for your practice, increasing the possibility of more patients.  Putting Red Light Therapy on your treatment menu can benefit your patients and your clinic’s bottom line in many ways, including:

  1. Fast and Effective Pain Relief

When it comes to alleviating pain, science has discovered that Red Light Therapy can reduce pain very quickly.  In fact, “Fast acting pain relief occurs within minutes of application…  And pain will decrease or disappear for up to several hours after the Red Light Therapy session ends.  This makes Red Light Therapy an effective, all-natural alternative to pharmaceutical drugs and injections for pain relief and pain management.

  1. Patients Can Be Left Unattended

Because Red Light Therapy is non-invasive, safe, and risk-free, health practitioners can feel confident in leaving patients unattended during their therapy sessions once the Red Light Therapy pads are in place and the controller is in operation.  This frees you and your staff to attend to other patients.  Administering Red Light Therapy is very simple and very easy:  therapy pads are placed on the body where needed, the system is turned on, and the pads proceed to do their work. Most Red Light Therapy systems shut off automatically after twenty-minutes, signaling the end of the session.  Plus, Red Light Therapy allows treatment of several problem areas simultaneously by using multiple therapy pads, so that a patient can have several issues treated during a single session.

  1. Fast ROI

In comparison to many other types of professional medical-grade equipment, Red Light Therapy systems are not only affordable, but they also have the potential to generate fast ROI.  These days, the practitioner purchase price of a Red Light Therapy system starts well under $1,000.  So, if patients were charged an additional $35 for a twenty-minute Red Light Therapy session as an add-on to their usual treatment, then a smaller Red Light Therapy system could pay for itself in as little as 20-22 treatment sessions.  Making Red Light Therapy a regular part of your patients’ treatment programs can generate a dependable additional revenue stream, as well as better outcomes for your patients.

  1. Sell Systems to Patients

As your patients experience the relaxing, soothing, and beneficial effects of Red Light Therapy, some patients may desire to purchase their own system for in-home use between regular office visits. This option may especially appeal to patients who suffer from acute or chronic conditions that are helped the most by daily therapy.  Also, patients who have just had surgery may also desire their own in-home system to help accelerate their healing and to ease their pain.  Sales of Red Light Therapy systems can generate a lucrative revenue stream, since HealthLight, as well as other manufacturers, allow health-care professionals to sell therapy systems directly to patients.  Practitioners may purchase systems at wholesale, and then profit by reselling these systems to patients at a price set by the practitioner.  Plus, HealthLight, a leading U.S. manufacturer of medical-grade Red Light Therapy systems, offers practitioners a free Red Light Therapy Pad system with their “Buy Any 5 Systems and Get One Free” program, which could then be sold to patients.  Also, in-home programs for specific conditions such as chronic back pain, arthritis, or foot problems can be developed that are based upon patients buying their own Red Light Therapy system for self-administered treatments between office visits.

Osteoporosis Prevention Tips

The human body is amazingly complex. With nearly a dozen systems working in symphony with one another, each is vitally important to a persons overall health. The skeletal system is comprised of 206 bones and performs six major functions in the body: support, movement, protection, production of blood cells, storage of minerals, and endocrine regulation.Osteoporosis is a disease that can impact the skeletal system, causing bones to become weak or brittle, putting people at risk for fractures. Bone is living tissue that is constantly being broken down and replaced. When a person is young, bone is made faster than it is broken down. As people age, this process slows and bone mass is lost faster than its created. Osteoporosis occurs when the creation of new bone is unable to keep up with the loss of old bone.At American, Advocate and Whitsyms In-Home Care, we know that keeping bones healthy is an important part of helping older adults live independently. To better understand the risk factors, as well as osteoporosis prevention strategies, we share the following helpful information.Who Is at Risk for Osteoporosis?Osteoporosis can affect both women and men, and while it can develop at any age, the risk factors increase as a person ages. In women, the disease may begin to develop a year or two prior to menopause. Although most common in non-Hispanic white and Asian women, osteoporosis can develop in men and in African American and Hispanic individuals of both sexes. Additional risk factors include:Body frame size. Women and men who have small body frames are typically at higher risk as they have less bone mass to draw from as they age.Family history. Having a parent or sibling with osteoporosis puts an individual at greater risk.Thyroid issues. Too much thyroid hormone can cause bone loss. This can occur if a persons thyroid is overactive or if too much thyroid hormone medication is taken to treat an underactive thyroid.Sex hormones. Lowered sex hormone levels can be a strong contributing factor for osteoporosis. Decreased estrogen levels following menopause, treatments for prostate cancer that reduce testosterone levels in men, and treatments for breast cancer that reduce estrogen levels in women are likely to accelerate bone loss.Low calcium intake. Long-term lack of calcium in a persons diet plays a role in the development of osteoporosis and can contribute to diminished bone density, early bone loss, and an increased risk of fractures.Steroids and other medications. Long-term use of oral or injected corticosteroid medications, such as prednisone and cortisone, interferes with the bone-rebuilding process. Additionally, medications for gastric reflux, transplant rejection, and seizures can increase bone loss and the risk for osteoporosis.Sedentary lifestyle. People who spend large amounts of time sitting have a higher risk of osteoporosis than individuals who are more active.Tobacco use. While the exact role tobacco plays in osteoporosis is not clear, it has been shown to contribute to weak bones.Chronic heavy drinking. Long-term consumption of more than two alcoholic drinks per day increases the risk of osteoporosis.Osteoporosis PreventionWhile a number of osteoporosis risk factors are out of a persons control, lifestyle changes can help maintain bone health.Calcium.Men and women between the ages of 18 and 50 need 1,000 milligrams of calcium per day. This daily amount increases to 1,200 milligrams when women turn 50 and men turn 70. To increase calcium intake, consider including these foods as part of a well-rounded diet:Calcium-fortified cereals and orange juiceLow-fat dairy productsDark green leafy vegetablesCanned salmon or sardines with bonesSoy products, such as tofuIf it is difficult to reach the recommended daily intake of calcium through diet alone, speak with your physician about including an over-the-counter calcium supplement.Vitamin D.Vitamin D helps improve the body's ability to absorb calcium. People can get vitamin D from sunlight; however, the use of sunscreen reduces the amount of vitamin D absorbed this way. It is recommended that people get at least 600 international units (IU) of vitamin D per day. After a person turns 70 years old, that recommendation increases to 800 IU per day. Vitamin D can be found in:Trout, salmon, tuna and swordfishOrange juice fortified with vitamin DDairy and plant milks fortified with vitamin DEgg yolksFortified cerealsIf you have trouble getting enough vitamin D in your diet, speak with your health care provider to determine the type and amount of vitamin D supplements you should take.Exercise.Exercise helps build strong bones and slow bone loss, and provides benefits no matter when you start. For maximum benefits, combine strength training exercises with weight-bearing and balance exercises.Strength training helps strengthen muscles and bones in the arms and upper spine.Weight-bearing exercises such as walking or jogging strengthen the bones in the legs, hips and lower spine.Balance exercises such as tai chi help to reduce the risk of falling.At American, Advocate and Whitsyms In-Home Care, our referred care providers help older adults make healthy lifestyle choices by encouraging regular, physician-approved exercise, healthy eating habits and much more. These care providers can work with each client to offer a variety of in-home care services that enhance independence and safety, while helping to monitor conditions such as osteoporosis and other chronic health conditions.Contact us today at the location nearest you and let us help find the perfect care provider to meet your needs. American In-Home Care  Serving North, Central, and West Coast of FloridaAdvocate In-Home Care  Serving Southeast and Southwest FloridaWhitsyms In-Home Care  Serving Southeast and Southwest FloridaState of Florida License and Registration Numbers: 30211518, 30211651, 30211295, 30211390, 30210978, 30211293, 30211382, 30211504, 30211733, 30211535, 30211531, 30211710, 30211709, 30211045, 5661

Red Light Therapy for Boosting Sports Performance and Reducing Recovery Time

Medically reviewed by Karen Wolters, RN and Joanna Fearnley, LPNIf you are like most active individuals, you probably enjoy engaging in sports, but hate the sore muscles you experience after a good game. So have you ever wondered if there exists an easy way to reduce the time needed for post-game muscle recovery? And is there a safe and effective way to decrease muscle fatigue for better athletic performance? The simple answer to these questions is yes, there is non-invasive, fast-acting, and risk-free Red Light Therapy!The good news for all athletes is that a simple and easy twenty-minute Red Light Therapy session before and/or after any type of sports activity or exercise can make a big difference in muscle performance, muscle fatigue, and recovery time! And not only can Red Light Therapy accelerate the repair of muscle damage, it can even help prevent it!Red Light Therapy Benefits AthletesIn a nutshell, Red Light Therapy is the use of light at different wavelengths and intensities to induce biochemical changes in tissue in a stimulatory or inhibitory manner.1 Red Light Therapy is also known as light emitting diode (LED) therapy; photobiomodulation (PBM), and phototherapy.With each passing decade, science continues to discover more and more therapeutic benefits that Red Light Therapy affords skin, muscles, nerves, cartilage, tendons, and even bones. Red Light Therapys benefits for muscles are especially exciting for athletes:Red Light Therapy can enhance muscle performanceRed Light Therapy can delay and reduce muscle fatigueRed Light Therapy can repair muscle damageRed Light Therapy can prevent muscle damageRed Light Therapy can improve postexercise muscle recoveryAs a 2013 study published in the Journal of Athletic Training confirms, Investigators could conclude that exposing skeletal muscle to single-diode and multidiode laser or multidiode LED therapy positively affects physical performance by delaying the onset of fatigue, reducing the fatigue response, improving postexercise recovery, and protecting cells from exercise-induced damage. This makes Red Light Therapy a very valuable therapeutic tool for all athletes, whatever their performance level. So why does Red Light Therapy affect such beneficial results in skeletal muscle?How Red Light Therapy Supports MusclesRed Light Therapy produces wide-ranging effects at the molecular, cellular, and tissue levels when Red Light Therapy pads are placed on the body. Photons of light emitted from the pads are easily absorbed through the skin, penetrating deeply into several inches of tissue. This light is then converted into signals that induce cascades of therapeutic chemicals to be released in cells that trigger, support, and speed up the bodys innate healing processes.One of the therapeutic chemicals that Red Light Therapy boosts is adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is vital for muscles. Muscles rely heavily on adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the biological source of energy needed for muscle work, and therefore robust increased ATP levels are the most popular hypothesis to explain the extraordinary effects that PBM appears to exert on muscle tissue. So, by using Red Light Therapy pre-game, athletes can increase their skeletal muscle ATP levels, resulting in better working muscles for better game performance.Red Light Therapy Reduces Recovery TimeScience has discovered that the level of ATP in muscle cells can make a big difference in not only performance but also recovery time. Skeletal muscle adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels are severely depleted during and following prolonged high intensity exercise. Recovery from these lower ATP levels can take days, which can affect performance on subsequent days of exercise. But by using Red Light Therapy post-game, athletes can replenish the ATP levels in their muscles for faster recovery time!When to Use Red Light TherapyIs it better to use Red Light Therapy pre- or post-game? Although most researchers have chosen to study the effects of Red Light Therapy before physical activity, there are studies that have found that Red Light Therapy provides benefits both before and after physical activity. However, evidence has shown positive effects in the application before and after exercise in the ability to prevent injuries related to muscle fatigue and also in the improvement of the recovery process. Another study stated, Both preconditioning (light delivered to muscles before exercise) and PBM applied after exercise can increase sports performance in athletes.It is interesting to note that Red Light Therapy administered before activity can also help improve muscle recovery after exercise or sports. One study found that even though Red Light Therapy was administered as a stand-alone therapy to high-level soccer players before exercise, performance and recovery were also improved, with Red Light Therapy, enhancing athletic performance and improving postexercise recovery. And a 2016 study of twelve male athletes also concluded that Red Light Therapy administered pre-exercise can enhance performance and accelerate recovery of high-level rugby players in field test.Add Red Light Therapy to Your Exercise EquipmentWhether Red Light Therapy is administered pre- or post-game, or both, its therapeutic benefits for muscle endurance and performance during sports and exercise, and muscle recovery after physical activity are undeniable. To summarize, Red Light Therapy, can improve muscle performance, reduce muscle fatigue during exercises, and benefit the muscle repair. So, keep a Red Light Therapy device wherever you train or exercise because, Phototherapy appears to be a viable treatment modality for skeletal muscle. It is safe, easy to administer, and noninvasive and has no known side effects and few reported contraindications.Choose HealthLight for Red Light Therapy PadsJust as all exercise equipment is not created equal, so it is with Red Light Therapy devices.

What is Red Light Therapy? Its the Best Kept Secret in Drug-Free Pain Relief!

Medically reviewed by Karen Wolters, RN and Joanna Fearnley, LPNThe medical establishment today seems to basically have three ways to treat both acute and chronic pain: drugs, injections, and/or surgery. Currently accepted therapies consist of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, steroid injections, opiate pain medications and surgery, each of which carries their own specific risk profiles. But this does not have to continue to be the norm for pain treatment. There is a better way to achieve pain relief using an alternative option available to everyone that is non-invasive, painless, non-addictive, fast-acting, highly effective, dependable, totally safe, and risk free and that is Red Light Therapy!Red Light Therapy is a BreakthroughAccording to author Ari Whitten, Red and near-infrared light therapy are one of the biggest breakthrough discoveries in health in the last half century. And Dr. Michael R. Hamblin, a pioneer in the study of light therapy, states, To a very great extent I believe that almost all types and variety of human diseases can be treated with light (of one kind or another).What is Red Light Therapy?Red Light Therapy is non-invasive, painless, and does not add any amount of stress or negative side effects to the body. It is a drug-free way to relieve existing pain.  A good basic definition of Red Light Therapy is, a fast-growing technology used to treat a multitude of conditions that require stimulation of healing, relief of pain and inflammation, and restoration of function.[4]  Red/Infrared Light utilizes non-coherent light sources consisting of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in specific wavelengths that produce a wide range of beneficial effects on the body, and can even support the bodys repair and regeneration of nerves and tissues. Many patients feel pain relief after just their first session of Red Light Therapy.How Red Light Therapy WorksRed Light Therapy not only effectively relieves pain, but it also stimulates and accelerates the bodys own innate healing processes a very important benefit which drugs and injections simply cannot accomplish. Wherever a Red Light Therapy Pad is placed on the body, photons of light are released which induce cascades of beneficial biochemical processes within the cells, similar to photosynthesis in plants.  Radiation of tissue with light causes an increase in mitochondrial products such as ATP, NADH, protein, and RNA Nitric oxide, the bodys vasodilator, is also released, which increases circulation, so that blood rich with oxygen and nutrients can now flow more freely into nerves, muscles, joints, and other tissues within that local area and accelerate the bodys natural healing processes.Safe and Risk FreeRed Light Therapy has been found to be risk free and can be administered without concern for harmful side effects.  According to Dr. Michael R. Hamblin,  Red Light Therapy has been proven to have an almost complete lack of reported adverse effectsA Typical Therapy SessionSo what is a typical Red Light Therapy session like?  A typical session usually lasts twenty minutes. Depending upon where the light therapy pads are needed for pain relief and healing support, you will either sit or recline.  All you need do is relax and stay comfortable.  You can watch television, read, talk on the phone, listen to music, or meditate during your therapy.  When the pads are in place and the controller is turned on, a gentle heat can be felt. Photons of light will be emitted that penetrate beneath your skin and are absorbed within your cells. Patients have described their Red Light Therapy sessions as comfortable, relaxing, and soothing.  There is no downtime after a treatment session, and this boost of pain relief and beneficial cellular processes continues for several hours or even days after the session.Getting StartedPatients with chronic pain management needs will benefit from purchasing a Red Light Therapy system for home use, which may also benefit the entire family.  And, since Red Light Therapy pads are made of flexible neoprene, this makes each pad very versatile. The same therapy pad can be used to treat issues that affect different areas of the body.HealthLight, a leading American manufacturer of professional, medical-grade FDA-cleared Red Light Therapy devices, makes two lines of Red Light Therapy systems: their Express-At-Home Line of devices for home users which feature convenient small and lightweight attached controllers, and their Clinical Line of Red Light Therapy products for health practitioners that utilize a separate 3 or 6-port controller to power the light therapy pads.HealthLights  Small 90 Diode Pad can make the perfect therapy system for the whole family. The small size of this pad makes it easy to place anywhere on the body.  For health practitioners, a 3-port controller and one to three light therapy pads (for example, HealthLights Large 264 Diode Body Pad along with their Long 180 Diode Pad) will make a world of difference in your clinic for better patient outcomes and for your revenue stream.Try Red Light TherapyNow that you know what Red Light Therapy is, you can depend upon Red Light Therapy to provide fast-acting and effective pain relief.  And HealthLight makes the most durable and most powerful clinical-strength Red Light Therapy devices available today. HealthLight offers a variety of systems to meet the needs of any individual, family, or health clinic.  Purchasing a Red Light Therapy system from HealthLight will provide you and/or your patients with effective pain relief, plus stimulate, accelerate, and support the bodys own innate healing processes the best way to maintain health and wellness, and, hopefully, avoid drugs, injections, and surgery.
